The best note taking apps
Being the user of Simplenote, Obisidan and Standard Notes I can say Craft is by far the best. So beautiful editor, so many options - yet simple enough. I love it and can warmly recommend it as a daily driver.

After trying so hard to build second brain with Apple Notes it was the backlinking eventually became a mandatory feature it was missing. Notion UX/UI felt like it was from the 90’s and the access friction made it clunky. Capable for sure but clunky. While Craft would benefit from Notion style database properties it’s not a deal breaker as the backlinking exists. There’s few types of linking methods that increase flexibility. As a native app the access speed compares to Apple Notes meaning that the idea to writing speed is comparable. It does not recuire weeks of tuning to start adding value. Daily planning is easy as OS linked calendars will show in the app(!). Workflow to many notes apps exists via share functionality (not Apple reminders though). Easy to build a workflow to personal liking. And the UX/UI. It’s so easy to tune and visually pleasuring 🤩
Great notekeeper that allows for personalized styling. Only drawback, is that some components can sometimes make my Mac freeze for a moment.
An addition of tables would be great for example. Finally found a worthy notes app that also has great UI/UX, but there are still some features that are lacking, which other apps have.
